“ Bury me not on the deep, deep sea !”
The words came faint and nionrnnnTy
From the pallid lips of a youth, who lay
On the cabin couch, where day by day
Me had wasted and pined, till o’er his brow
The death shade had slowly passed —and now
When the land of his fond loved home was nigh,
They had gathered around to s?e him die ’
“ Bury me not in the deep, deep sea,
Where the billowy shroud will roll o’er me —
Where no tight can break through the dark cold
And no sunbeam rest sweetly on my grave, [wave,
It boots not, I know, I oft have been told,
Where the body shall lie when the heart is cold.
Yet grant ye, oh grant ye. this boon to me,
Bury me not in the deep,; deep sea !
« In infancy I’ve listened; to well known words—
The free wild wind, and the song of birds —
I have thought of home, of cot and of bower,
And scenes I loved in childhood’s hour,
I have over hoped to be laid when I died,
In the church yard therein the green hill side,
By the bones of my fathers my grave should he,
Bury me not in the deep sea !
“Let my death si umber be, where a mother’s prayer,
And a sister’s tears may be blended there,
Oh, ’twill be sweet ere the heart’s throe is o’er,
To know when its fountains shall gush no more,
That those it so fondly has yearned for will come,
To plant the first wil'd flowers of spring o’er my
tomb—
Let me die where lov’d ones can weep o’er me,
Bury me not in the deep, deep sea!
“And there is another —her tears would be shed,
For him who lay far in an ocean’s bed—
In hours that pains me to think of now,
She has twined these locks and kissed this brow —
In the hair she has wreathed, shall the sea make
a hiss ?
The brow she has press’ll shall the cold waves kiss?
For the sake of that bright one, who waits for me,
Bury'me not in the deep, deep sea !
“She hath been in my dreams” —his voice failed'
here — * * * 11 + +
They have lowered him low o’er the vessel’s side,
Above him hath closed the silent tide.? —
Where to dip her wing the wild fowl rests,
Where the blue waves dance with their foaming
crests,
Where the billows bound, and the waves sport free-
They have buried him there in file deep, deep sea.
I saw a vast multitude of the sick and dying,
all fast hastening to death, and 1 heard a voice say
ing to each and all, “There is life for the asking;"
and there was but one or two of all that great com
pany raised their voices to beg the boon.
I saw a band of weary travellers, in a sandy
desert, parched with thirst, and faint beneath the
rays of the burning sun; and I heard a voice saying
to them, “There is water for the seeking.” “Ho,
every one that thirsteth come ye to the waters! '
and directly in sight appeared a cool and sparkling
fonntain. gushing from a rock which threw its deep
shadow across the “weary land; and but few there
were who made the effort to reach the grateful
-shade of the rock, or to slake their thirst in its
waters.
“There is gold for the digging,” proclaims anoth
er voice; and thousands of eager questioners cry,
“Where—where?” Far, far away,.over the deep
waters, across the dangerous passes of the moun
tains ; danger and disease must be met, privation
and hunger must be braved—but what of all that?
there is “gold for the digging,” at the end. And
how they thtfong, and press, and crowd, lo reach
that far off land.
“ What shall it profit a man, if he gain the whole
world , and lose his own soul; or what, when it is
lost, “shall he give in exchange for his soul!”

“Mecliauicsburg Institute.?’
A SELECT SCHOOL E,OR YOUNG LADIES.
THIS Institute is pleasantly located in the healthy
village of Mechariicsburg, Cumberland County,
nine miles west of Harrisburg—a place noted
throughout the surrounding counties for the morality
of its citizens. : It is accessible by railroad, the
Cumberland Valley Railroad passing through the
place.
The course of instruction is such as is pursued
in the best seminaries of our country.
It is the design of the Principal to instruct the
intellectual powers, to cultivate becoming manners,
and to educate in such a manner as may prove
practically useful.
The school year is divided into two semi-annual
sessions, each of five months.
The Summer Session commences the first week
in April, and closes during last week in August.
